Hollywood star Johnny Depp fans are in disappointment as the studios now believe that no one can work with the actor post all the scandals and media chaos he has been a part of. A report from the industry insiders says Johnny Depp has been blacklisted in the industry. Since 2016 when his ex-wife Amber Heard came forward with allegations of emotional and physical abuse the actor's reputation has seen a drop.
But the studios continued to work with him till now when Warner Bros cast him for ‘Fantastic Beasts 3’, later on they backed him from their payroll once a UK judge dismissed Johnny Depp’s libel case. Though he is not a part of the film they have paid him the full salary. Johnny was a huge box office draw and used to draw a massive salary for every film. He was chosen for the 20th Century Fox and Warner Bros.' ‘Murder on the Orient Express’ and ‘Fantastic Beasts’ respectively.
A report in The Hollywood news agency states that one particular studio head said that "you simply can't work with him now" because "he's radioactive." Johnny Depp recently lost a libel case against The Sun, in the case he slapped them with defamation for calling him a “wife beater”. He, however, lost the case. Johnny Depp was once one of the highest-paid actors in Hollywood. Since 2016, it’s said that his presence has become more and more of a liability.
